Ok, I know, I said I would implement sound, and I swear I started, but I can explain what happened and why I’m still without sound. For each kind of data (i.e textures, materials, loaders, etc) I had a manager. Each manager was a singleton, and after coding the Sound manager I said “Dude! I [...]

Two status update on the same day? GOSH I’m crazy! The world is ending! Penitenciagite! :P I’ve just followed shash’s advice and implemented frame interpolation. Obviously it didn’t work the first time I tried, but the second. As always I’ve recorded the progress so you can enjoy and laugh. Implementing frame interpolation was really easy [...]
Status Update
As I said on my last post, I was pursuing animation, and guess what: I have it! Even when I haven’t implemented frames interpolation yet the animations look funny. So let’s start with the usual postmortem of what went wrong. First I started parsing the md5 anim files, and guess what I don’t like it [...]

I was following David Henry’s tutorial [...]

Shadower, the first incarnation (and lucky for all of us now is dead, buried, burnt and… everything) of this engine used several external classes (that is not coded by myself), [...]
Status Update
Yesterday was a happy day :) As I stated in my previous post, I hadn’t tested any of all the code i had written, so yesterday (and the day before yesterday, and in fact the whole weekend) I was commited to test the loader and the shiny new math library. Obviously it had bugs, several [...]
Status update
Well, interesting times…. I’ve just removed a dependency :) GLM Math library is an excellent templated library, honest, use it if you want power and a nice syntax. Unlucky for me, I was using an old version (from 2007 IIRC) and it had several bugs. I decided to update the library to its last version, [...]
Back from the graveyard
After a long period of inactivity, i’ve just decided to resurrect my components based engine. The first thing i’m going to do is remove as many dependencies as possible. Stay tuned! Toni
